I highly recommend Tim and will refer him to anyone I come across with similar issues.
I am totally in awe with the great experience and service! Sally and Tim and Gracie communicated with email and promptly.. I had a truck with 107,000 plus miles and other firms would not touch my case. Tim and staff gladly took my case without any hitch and managed to get me a cash settlement without even filing a complaint in court or arbitration in less than 60 days!
I’d recommend Mr. Abeel for anyone with a Lemon Law issue!
Mr. Abeel and his colleagues were extremely helpful with my case! They responded promptly to emails (with questions) that I sent and was able to quickly get a settlement with my case (within about 45 days). I am extremely happy with the outcome of my case! I’d recommend Mr. Abeel for anyone with a Lemon Law issue!
You won’t be disappointed!
Great experience with Tim and Sally! Left a message on their website and got a phone call shortly from Sally. After the conversation, Sally said they could help me with the case. Sent docs and got back from Tim about the status within one month. Very happy with the settlement results. If you think you might get a lemon, contact them. You won’t be disappointed!
I would highly recommend Tim Abeel & Associates.
Tim Abeel & Associates handled my case with the tenacity needed to reach an appropriate settlement with a major automobile manufacturer. Tim and his team (John, Sally and especially Gracie) did a great job of staying on point and communicating the status with me.
Although my case involved a 2016 Jeep Wrangler (Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act), Tim and team were able to reach a best case resolution for me and my wife. Simply stated, without Tim and Gracie, I believe we would still be fighting this.
Needless to say, I would highly recommend Tim Abeel & Associates.
I could finally move on thanks to this firm.
Amazing service from Mr. Abeel and his staff. After 18 months of getting the runaround from a very high luxury brand that is known for not being cooperative with issues, Mr. Abeel was able to settle my case. I could finally move on thanks to this firm. Highly recommended!

How Does Arizona Lemon Law Work?
Arizona Lemon Law activates when a warranted vehicle has persistent defects despite multiple repair attempts. Once you’ve given manufacturers a reasonable chance to fix the issues and they’ve failed, your vehicle may qualify as a “lemon,” entitling you to compensation. The law establishes specific timeframes and repair attempt thresholds that determine eligibility for relief.

What To Do If Your Vehicle Doesn’t Qualify Under
Not every vehicle qualifies under Arizona Lemon Law. If you’ve exceeded the mileage or time restrictions, the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act may help. This federal consumer protection law requires manufacturers to honor written warranties and prohibits them from using deceptive warranty terms. It allows consumers to recover costs, including legal fees, when warranties are breached, providing a valuable alternative path to compensation for defective vehicles that fall outside state Lemon Law coverage.
